Smartphones are like our digital soulmates—with us through thick and thin, from late-night doom scrolling to snapping pics of our brunch (and pretending it’s not for Instagram). This year’s lineup had us swiping right on some serious lookers, from budget champs to feature-packed folding wizards, ones with jaw-dropping cameras and those with batteries that don't ghost you by lunchtime. Our categories highlight the top performers in each segment – superior photography, innovative foldable tech, an affordable choice, and one that's an overall standout. We’ve crowned the absolute stars of 2024!
Meet the smartphones that made us swoon this year!
